Oscar winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman has been found dead in his Manhattan apartment after an apparent drug overdose.
According to law enforcement, the American actor and father of three was found on the bathroom floor of apartment 4D in his $10,000 a month West Village apartment Sunday morning wearing only shorts and t-shirt with a hypodermic needle sticking out of his left arm surrounded by empty bags of heroin.
Just before 7 p.m., medical examiners finally removed Mr Hoffman's body from the apartment where it had remained all day. Crime scene unit investigators spent the entire afternoon and early evening collecting evidence from the home.
Mr Hoffman won the best actor Academy Award for the 2005 film, Capote.
Mimi O'Donnell, Mr Hoffman's partner of 14 years and the mother of his three children, first raised the alarm after he failed to collect son Cooper, 10, and daughters Tallulah, 7, and Willa, 5, as arranged.
The actor and Miss O'Donnell reportedly separated in October, when it is believed he moved into the two bedroom West Village apartment. The apartment is just a few blocks from the family's $4 million home in Jane Street
Worried, Miss O'Donnell phoned their mutual friend, David Bar Katz, who went to check on the actor with a female friend and the pair discovered his lifeless body in the bathroom of the apartment.
'I saw him last week, and he was clean and sober, his old self,' Mr Katz, a screenwriter, told the New York Times later Sunday. He said he called 911 after finding Mr Hoffman. 'I really thought this chapter was over.'
Police described seeing a home filled with pictures of his three children. In stark contrast, however, investigators discovered heroin envelopes in the bathroom trash marked in purple with either an Ace of Spades or an Ace of Hearts, according to the Daily Beast.
Police have said they are working to determine which drug dealers in Manhattan use those brand names, which haven't been seen in New York City since 2008.
